Grandma's often brag.

Karmyns budding artists.
Two years ago, when my Ben'jammin was 3 1/2 and my Buttercup was just barely 1, both of them drew a picture for grandma's calendar.




















'Jammin drew a bluebird.
I thought it would fly!




























Buttercup gave me a flock of bluebirds. I'm sure I see a beak in there! Don't you?

I do! I do see a beak!! I even think there are a pair of WINGS in there !!

I think 'Jammin drew a beautiful bird. I think Buttercup drew that beautiful bird after it had a little RUN IN with someone's grill.

Of course there is a beak.

I have so many of these pictures in my memory boxes, but I have to label them with notes like "chicken" and "this is a swing set!" because in ten years, I am not going to remember what the hell they were supposed to be.

Have you and Karmyn been comparing notes?

Wow that 3-year-old is quite an artist!!!!! You should be so proud-- and I definitely see the flock of birds. i wonder if they are coming to your house?

I have that bird picture framed - because it was one of his "brilliant" moments.

Now I only get pictures of stabbed pirates running through mazes or jumping off fire ships.

(and sadly, I don't think Buttercup's technique has advanced much in all this time)

These are so cute! You do have a couple of up and coming artists! You and Karmyn should be so proud!

I think I've seen Benjamin's bluebird in my "Stoke's Field Guide for Birds."
I can see two birds in Buttercup's drawing...the purple one WITH the eye and the blue one flying into the purple one from the other direction...a much larger bird.
I have a great story in my August Archives (I can't add a link here yet) about a little boy and his drawing.It's the Visual Spatial story with the hummingbirds. If you have time, it will only take about 1 minute to read it. I think you'll like it.

I see the beak, and some wings! Great pictures. They take after Grandma, very artistic!

Clearly your grandchildren have inherited the "artist gene" from their darling grandmother! NOT BAD!

Sure do see a beak! Talents!
A beak? Silly, I see several! What beautiful work they do. One day we will be able to say, we saw some of their first works. :)
